omg it is one of the best yaoi/manga/stories i have ever read. It's 8 published volumes long and is on a 9th. I love the characters and it's so amazing. Souichi and Morinaga are kind of opposite personalities in some aspects, but they both have a deep affection for each other. They just express it differently. It's set in present day, no fancy stuff or alternate universes. You see the beginning of their relationship in a previous series by the same author, Hinako Takanaga, called Challengers. That one's about Souichi's younger brother. But Koisuru Boukun is focused on Souichi himself and Morinaga. The first volume might be a little off-putting if you're not familiar w/ the way the characters are, it's a touchy subject... but i would recommend that if you're going to read it, read at least to volume 2.
